Summary
Erdal Pekel is a Technical Lead for AGV systems and an independent consultant with 9 years of experience in automation and industrial robotics, blending hands-on software engineering with academic rigor from a PhD at Technical University of Munich. He specializes in simulation, safe deployment and control of industrial robot arms, and has a proven track record of turning prototypes into production-ready systems that include image-analysis algorithms and web-based operator interfaces. His doctoral work uniquely combined robotic manipulation with X‑ray CT imaging—developing calibration, optimized acquisition strategies to reduce radiation dose, and integrated web visualization—showing an aptitude for cross-disciplinary problem solving. Comfortable across low-level control, vision processing and user-facing tooling, he focuses on practical, easy-to-use solutions that accelerate lab-to-factory transfer.
